Engine longevity and care

[HondaG100]

It is like the saying goes about field tile in Indiana farm country........ You pay for it whether you install it or not. The people that buy the cheap stuff end up paying for repairs and eventually another one while my ZTR mower that's the same age as me keeps going. It wouldn't irritate me as much if the quality of the expensive stuff didn't get dragged down with the rest.

Speaking if Indiana field tile...we were finishing off a 100 acres and got to the last vent pipe. Neighbor Jim had me haul in a ton of gravel and he was behind the truck directing me over the hole. All of a sudden, I couldn't find Jim in any of my mirrors. So I get out to see where the hole is....and found Jim flat on his back five feet down !! I told him to stay there while I went up to the house to get my camera. All he said was " F@^# you Bob !!!"
